There is a lot of misleading info on here. 1992 Brett Favre high series boxes are not $35! You can also not buy boxes of topps Tiffany for $20, they came as a set. You need to fact check!
Incredible these are hall of fame players with gem mint rookies from 30 plus years ago worth a few hundred bucks, where now some nobody rookies that have done nothing are worth a fortune because the card companies made it ultra rare 😂
1989 to 1993 My mom was a massive collector of football cards. She always told me growing up it was my school fund, lol. Sadly its mostly junk, she picked a bad year to get into it. I have boxes and boxes of that stuff, and every time I gow through it the cards come up at 1-2$ at most for the "good" ones. There are thousands and thousands so prob some money there, just so much work to process them all. And I would imagine any good ones will need grading to be sellable.
Here's the kicker. ANY, I MEAN ANY card from early 80's to early 90's is gonna fetch higher prices in PSA 10- BUT one better know it's gonna grade a 10 because of fees PLUS then you GOTTA hope it sells. So it's a DOUBLE WAMMY and risky
Just getting back into collecting and potentially selling. I really appreciate the content here. I'm amazed at the cards I've found recently in my boxes of cards.
I know box prices are pretty cheap, but damn that cheap? What's ridiculous is you can buy a whole box on 1989 Dunruss for around $10 but a Griffey Junior graded 10 is worth lord knows how much more.
Here's the deal as a 60 year old that has been out of the hobby since 1991 - If PSA 10 Graded cards would sell for that money - surely unopened boxes should sell for higher prices. I've got around 20 unopened boxes from 1987 to 1990 all companies I can't give away BUT people pay that for a graded card??? I know I'm old school and don't know how it works but I bet it's expensive and a pain in the ass sending cards to be graded.
That's interesting how the 77' Topps Star Wars prices have really declined, I sold two Luke #1, both PSA 8's about three months apart. First one %1750.00, the 2nd 750.00
